“None of the family were allowed go up to see him,” Padraig explained on Liveline on RTÉ Radio 1 today. He revealed that the only way he was able to see Francis that day was by using some outdoor furniture to look through his hospital window. “We had tears over the time that he was in hospital, and I shed another tear when I had a look. I just said ‘goodbye Francis’.”

Padraig revealed that there was no funeral service for his brother. Instead, Francis’ undertakers brought him to his house in Clondalkin, where the hearse stayed for around ten minutes.
